Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A phase adjuster assembly is disclosed that includes an input gear connected to an input shaft via an interface assembly configured to provide both axial movement and rotational locking between the input gear and the input shaft. A piston plate is connected to the input shaft, and the piston plate defines at least one inner spiral bidirectional raceway. An output gear is configured to be driven by the input shaft, and the output gear at least partially defines at least one outer spiral bidirectional raceway. At least one first rolling element is arranged between the at least one inner bidirectional raceway and the at least one outer spiral bidirectional raceway. Axial movement of the piston plate adjusts a phase between the input gear and the output gear. The input shaft is configured to be axially displaced via axial movement of the piston plate.
